Can the audio be recorded from You Tube?

Post by Roy Ayres »

I have tried to find something on this subject by searching the Forum, but no luck. There is a lot of good music -- especially steel -- on You Tube. I would like to record the audio from some of the videos, just for my personal library.

I don't know if it would help, but I have Power Tracks, WaveLab Lite, and Anvil Studio.

Any ideas?

Roy, I just tried Sound Forge and it worked fine,
I quess any program that can record audio will be fine.
make sure the you set windows audio mixed to Wave to mix and that you have the youtube playing before you start recording with whatever program you using , at least that is what I found with SF as if you change windows SF will stop recording..or try this

Thanks, John. I was just shutting down, but I'll give it a try tomorrow.

John,

My "WaveLab Lite" does it great. I just had to try it before shutting down.

I would never have guessed it. I thought it would have to be some complicated procedure.

Thank you a bunch.

Pandora.com creates great music stations. I have several that I enjoy. I wonder if Pandora is recordable?

would those devices you all have work ?
